Some people are handed a Sam Bass-designed Gibson guitar and think "smashy-smashy." Not Ron Hornaday Jr. All the 51-year-old driver is interested in is smashing records, like when he won his fifth Camping World Truck Series race in a row on Saturday in Nashville. Safe to say he won’t be sawing this trophy into pieces.

This is why you keep cronies around. They don’t ask why the boss is bowling on a carpeted surface. They just clap.
